Compact Blinder 2
Troubleshooting
This troubleshooting guide is meant to help solve simple problems.
If a problem occurs, carry out the steps below in sequence until a solution is found. Once the unit
operates properly, do not carry out following steps.
No Light
If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician.
Suspect three potential problem areas as: the power supply, the lamp, the fuse.
01) Power supply. Check if the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply.
02) The lamp. Replace the lamp. See page 8 for more information.
03) The fuse. See page 9 (Replacing the Fuse) for more information.
04) If all appears to be O.K., plug the unit in again.
05) If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the Compact Blinder, as this
may damage the unit and the warranty will become void.
06) Return the device to your Showtec dealer.
